I’m sure you’ve all seen Sarah Silverman’s “I’m fucking Matt Damon” video by now. It was pretty funny. Honestly, I’m going to steal that idea and use it the next time I need to dump someone. What I suspect you haven’t seen, however… is Jimmy Kimmel’s response. Well played, sir. Well played.

Buh…wha?
So tonight, I was at Mardi Gras. Sort of. My sister’s school had a “Mardi Gras” night. Less tits, but lots of beads, masks, costumes, etc. And more games and carnival style things, like a bouncy house and slushies. The fun part, for me, is that Carol Ann’s elementary (grades K-7) school used to be [...]
Anti-social
Public Transit makes me anti-social. Especially during the morning commute. Therefore, please accept this as a general notice to the entire world: Don’t talk to me unless it’s absolutely necessary, like “You’re standing on my foot” or “Excuse me, but it appears that you are currently on fire.” I’ll accept a polite smile & nod, [...]
I’m gonna be a Supermodel EMR…
Today, I booked off three weeks of vacation time. On April 17th, I start the Emergency Medical Responder course at the Justice Institute. At the end (assuming I pass) I’ll be able to get my EMA license, allowing me to provide pre-hospital care in an emergency setting. How freaking cool is that?
I was not cut out for the suburbs.
Last night, I decided to go for a wander through a new neighbourhood on my way home. It wasn’t there when I lived there before (heck, I didn’t even really know it was there at all til I noticed a new street off of Fraser Highway that I didn’t remember seeing before…), and if I [...]
Healthy
You know what makes me appreciate our health system the most? Vet care. I had a doctors appointment yesterday. Didn’t cost me a penny. I have at least two more appointments to follow, and those won’t cost me anything either. Contrast that with the vet appointment I have for Saturday, where I’m looking at $90 [...]
Biblical proof that my parents are doing okay
Psalm 92:14: They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing; This particular passage is taped to the fridge. I am terribly amused.
I am IM
So I’ve started using MSN a lot more in the last little while. Anybody else use this? Come talk to me. I’m occasionally bored. donna@arwen.org If I’m online and I don’t answer, don’t take it personally. I’m probably playing Warcraft or something silly like that. Yes, this is also my main email address. I have [...]
You have the right to…
Today, I heard someone get Miranda-ized, or whatever the Canadian version is. To be honest, it sounded virtually identical to what you hear every week on Law & Order. Guess the Canadian version ain’t that different. Nothing insane, no big takedown, just a guy at Stadium Skytrain who got caught by a couple of Transit [...]
Pleasantly surprised.
There’s a certain amount of “Huh, I’m not sure if that’s the route I would have gone” that goes along with this, but I was very, very pleasantly surprised when filling out an application this evening, and when asked to check off my gender, I had the option of: Male / Female / Trans Wow. [...]
